Product key and WinXP

i have an original Boxed WINXP, to which i purchased 2 more keys through MS's website 
apparently i can have 5 total purchased.

i have 3 PC's, and only know 1 of the keys associated to 1 of my pc's...

Is there any place, similar to Win2k, where i can find/identify the product key in 
non-algorithmic text? I would imagine its in the registry files somewhere, after 
all found where my registered owner information is kept so i cant be that far off 
base here...

I am leery of downloading any files that convert/find this information, but i will 
at last resort before i reformat for security purposes...

many thanks
me :)
